  • The vast majority of the bananas currently grown and consumed were not conventionally bred but are selections made over probably thousands of years from naturally occurring hybrids. Cultivated bananas are very nearly sterile and as a consequence are not propagated from seed but rather through vegetative propagation, primarily suckers as well as more recently micropropagated or tissue cultured bananas. These factors, very old selections, near sterility and vegetative propagation, mean that these bananas have not been genetically improved either for resistance or improved quality and are becoming increasing in affected by serious pests and diseases.

  • The Bioplatforms Australia Framework Initiatives are national collaborative projects that generate high-impact ‘omics data and knowledge resources to support some of Australia’s biggest scientific challenges across agriculture, biomedicine, the environment and industry. The resulting datasets and data objects are stored within (or linked from) the Bioplatforms Australia Data Portal and are all accompanied by a rich set of metadata to enhance reuse. Full access to the data files requires registration.
